as shown in the chart the number six is represented by the hebrew letter vav... it has been claimed that the three so called 'vavs' in the monster energy drink logo would translate to 6-6-6...the number of the beast in revelation... but actually this notion is completely false...because the biblical number of the beast is not just the digit six repeated six times...it is actually the number six hundred and sixty-six...which would be represented by very different hebrew letters... this can be seen from the original greek text of revelation... revelation 13:18..."Ode he sophia estin. Ho echon noun psephisato ton arithmon tou theriou, arithmos gar anthropou estin, kai ho arithmos autou hexakosioi hexekonta hex." 'hexakosioi' is greek for 'six hundred'...'hexekonta' is greek for 'sixty'...and 'hex' is greek for 'six'...so the number of the beast is six hundred and sixty-six... older bible translations such as the king james version show this clearly by using the phrase 'six hundred threescore and six'... revelation 13:18..."Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six." looking at the chart of the numeric values of the hebrew alphabet...the actual number of the beast which is six hundred and sixty-six would be represented by the letters 'tav resh samekh vav'...-not- 'vav vav vav'...and 'tav resh samekh vav' would have -no resemblance whatsoever- to the logo on the monster energy drink... so the logo on the monster energy drink is -not- the biblical mark of the beast in hebrew...the teaching is false...
MONSTER starts with M. Wouldn't it be more sense to be the capital letter M, which is the first letter of the name of the drink? I do find it sad that people become so paranoid about nothing. The fact is, if you are following God and serving him, the devil is not going to seduce you with nonsense like drinking Monster energy means giving yourself to Satan. I mean, either you are God's child or you are not! You don't lose your salvation over an energy drink!

I think that would sum it up pretty well
Yes!!! That's my point.
Just because you drink a fluid that has heavy marketing tatics mean that you are now a satan worshiper?

I'm pretty sure the point was to give context to meaning rather then to be literal.

lol 3 pages of debate over the symbol being evil and not much attention drawn to the fact that it is named monster. that is the biggest clue. if you take it all together there is not much room for other interputations. it is one thing to get wings but another to be a monster.
